Abstract

Optical sources for coherent detection utilize lasers. There are several types of laser such as solid state laser, gas laser, and laser diode. Laser diodes are the most promising for practical transmission systems because of their compactness and reliability. However, the main problem is spectral linewidth (determined by phase noise). The spectral linewidth of oscillators for a radio communication system is less than 1 Hz. Therefore, the spectral linewidth of an oscillator is not an important factor. However, Fabry-Perot laser diodes oscillate in several longitudinal modes. The multiple longitudinal mode oscillation can be reduced by distributed feedback (DFB) or distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) laser diode structures. These laser diodes oscillate in only one longitudinal mode but the longitudinal mode has the spectral linewidth resulting from phase noise.
